OGANOVA, Dina - My place

"This is the new generation of Georgia. The first generation living after the disintegration of the Soviet Union who really want to change something in their lives and think they are a ‘special generation.’ 
I’m proud that I was born in the end of 20th century and I think that our generation is in the middle of the way between two centuries, therefore we are not there and neither here…
They are in their own rooms, own space… I feel that my generation could change something in Georgia, the generation of 90s.” (© Dina OGANOVA)
